Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 1744 It's useless to worry
In the Egyptian palace, after repeated invitations, from morning to afternoon, Sun Ke finally finished his work, taking no time to rush.Slowly came to the Egyptian palace.

While walking slowly, Sun Ke glanced at these Egyptian ministers present with a smile on his face. Aren't you all very good in the past?
It's very arrogant, every day you yell and encourage Kansu II to take back the half of the Egyptian canal that belongs to Daming?

Why is it that everyone looks like a defeated rooster now, so dejected that they don't even dare to look at themselves?
At the bottom of the steps, Sun Ke proudly raised his head and looked at Kansu II.

In the past, this Kansu II was very flamboyant, claiming to be the co-lord of the three continents, a great emperor, etc., a bit arrogant.

Now, anyone with a discerning eye can see that he is as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, very restless and anxious.

"I have seen His Majesty the King~"

Sun Ke slightly bowed his hands and saluted. His attitude was still very arrogant, representing the Ming Empire.

"No, no~"

Kansu II waved his hand now, and then said anxiously: "Ambassador Sun, can you please sell us a batch of arms and weapons from Ming Dynasty immediately?"

"Arms and weapons?"

"I can't be the master of this matter. I have to report it to our Ming Dynasty court, and let the world and the princes in the court decide."

Upon hearing this, Sun Ke said hastily.

"Then please Ambassador Sun report this matter to your country as soon as possible. We in Egypt want to buy about 2000 million taels of arms and weapons."

"We can pay 1000 million taels of silver first, and can the remaining 1000 million taels be loaned to us."

"I have already prepared the relevant list, and I would like to ask Ambassador Sun to report back to the Son of Heaven as soon as possible. In view of the friendly relationship between our two countries, I also ask your country to deliver the arms and weapons we need as soon as possible."

Kansu II obviously didn't understand the situation a little bit, he said anxiously, and also ordered someone to hand over a list to Sun Ke.

"Do you want to buy more weapons?"

"What happened?"

When Sun Ke heard this, he immediately pretended to be very surprised and asked.

"To tell you the truth, Egypt fought a big battle with the Ottoman Empire in Mesopotamia, and suffered heavy losses. We need your country's arms and weapons to strengthen our strength."

Kansu II would not believe that the other party did not know about this matter. The mission of this Sun Ke is not only as simple as the ambassador to Egypt, but also shoulders the task of collecting information and intelligence from the Middle East, North Africa and other places.

Judging from the fact that the businessmen of Ming Dynasty are spread all over the world, it is impossible to hide anything from the eyes of the people of Ming Dynasty.

"That's it, I will report this matter to our Son of Heaven as soon as possible, and ask the Son of Heaven to make a decision."

Sun Ke suddenly understood, and said in a calm manner.

"Then there's Ambassador Lao Sun~"

"This is a small gift we have prepared, and please accept it with a smile from Ambassador Sun."

Kansu II clapped his hands, and soon several Egyptian beauties came out with trays, some with gold on them, and some with emeralds, jade and agate, all of which were precious things, even with a few beauties. They were given to Sun Ke together.

"Your Majesty is being polite, I will not be rewarded for nothing."

"I'll take my leave first, and go back to report this matter first."

Sun Ke looked at it, and was still very moved, but at this juncture, he didn't dare to accept these, otherwise he might be sent to a no-man's land in Australia in the future.

After receiving the money, we have to do things, and there is no way to delay this Kansu II slowly.

After speaking, Sun Ke left directly.

Kansu II and others thought that there would be news soon after Sun Ke returned.

Because everyone knows that the people of Daming have mastered something called a telegram, even in Egypt, they can quickly contact the local capital of Daming, and report the matter to the son of Daming.

However, this wait lasted for three days without any news.

Sun Ke seemed to have completely forgotten about this matter. Instead, he waited for the worse news. The Ottoman Empire army captured Damascus, and the troops were directed at the Jordan River area. Once the Jordan River area is lost , the army of the Ottoman Empire can drive straight in and directly kill the Sinai Peninsula in Egypt.

This can make Kansu II anxious to death.

The elite new musketeers were all ruined, and even the Arab cavalry suffered heavy losses. What else could they use to fight the Ottoman Empire.

What's more, the Ottoman Empire now has [-] Musketeers, and [-] of them are obviously using the Miyun Musket produced by the Ming Empire.

Not to mention Egypt, even the Persians are now in a panic, and are in a hurry to find the Ming Empire to buy arms and weapons.

"What's going on here, Sun Ke?"

"Why hasn't there been any news for three days?"

Kansu II asked anxiously about his courtiers.

"Great Emperor~"

"The minister has already contacted Sun Ke. They said that these days just happened to be weekends. According to the Humu Code of the Ming Empire, people in Ming Dynasty don't go to work on weekends. Even the emperor and officials are resting."

The ministers under him hurriedly replied.

"weekend?"

"Don't go to work, rest at home?"

When Kansu II heard this, everyone was dumbfounded. He was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. They were good people from Ming Dynasty, and even said that they would not go to work on weekends and had to rest.

Kansu II also knew about this, because he had read the newspapers before, and knew that people in Daming did have a habit of resting on weekends. On weekends, unless it was a particularly important event, everyone in Daming was resting.

That's right, this is Daming.

Yamen is closed for holidays, factories are also closed for rest, and schools are closed for holidays. Everyone either rests at home, or goes to watch football games, theaters, horse races, or go shopping.

This is something that has already been written into the Da Ming Xiumu Law Code. Da Ming has almost nothing to do on weekends and weekends, no one can be found, and they all go out to play.

Originally, at the beginning, there were capitalists who wanted workers to work overtime, etc. Later, they discovered that weekend vacations are actually good for everyone, because on weekend vacations, everyone has to go out to play and spend, and things sell better. Greatly stimulated Ming's domestic demand.

If I used to work in the factory all year round, eat and live in the factory, and didn't have to buy clothes, the domestic demand would naturally not be great.

Moreover, after working for many years, the workers will have a lot of opinions after a long time.

After the pressure of survival becomes less, the people of Daming will naturally pursue a better life. It is good to work hard, but money must be spent to make money, otherwise it is meaningless.

So two days off on weekends, this is already something that Da Ming has implemented.

There is no way, the factory owner wants everyone to continue to work, but there is a shortage of manpower here in Daming, and it is already very difficult to recruit workers. If you make the workers unhappy, they will leave directly.

For the Ming people in this period, they have many choices, and they can all live a good and comfortable life. At worst, they immigrated to overseas or outside the customs, and their lives can still be very comfortable.

Kansu II knew this and could only wait.

It took another two days to wait, and I thought there would be news, but Sun Ke said again that His Royal Highness Prince Daming gave birth to a grandson for Prince Daming.

The Son of Heaven, Joy, has no intention of dealing with government affairs. Unless it is a major matter related to Daming himself, other matters will be postponed for a few days.

"~~~"

Kansu II is about to scold, the efficiency of this Daming man is too low.

It's the weekend again, and it's the birth of a baby. Do you still have to wait for the baby to be full moon?

There is also this big Ming prince, it is said that he has given birth to almost 100 sons now, are you a planter?

Know how to sow seeds every day and not do other things?

At this juncture, it is good to give birth to another son and come out to play football.

Scolding is scolding, but Kansu II has no choice but to wait.

This wait is another three days.

Then this time, Sun Ke's recovery was that the cabinet elder Li Dongyang fell ill and was hospitalized for treatment.

"Li Dongyang is sick. Could it be that Liu Jin and Qi Zhong are also sick?"

"Or is there one missing Li Dongyang, and the Ming court can't even function?"

Hearing the news, Emperor Kansu II was so angry that he had nothing to say. This Daming man procrastinated in his work, which is really unbelievable.

Is this still the invincible Ming Empire?

Could it be that when something happened to Da Ming, he was so procrastinated?
There is still no way, but can only continue to wait.

As a result, another two days have passed, and there is still no news. Even Sun Ke is said to have gone to Port Said to watch a Ming opera troupe. It is said that there is a Ming opera troupe. Sun Ke has been in Egypt for a long time, missing his hometown, and sent him to see it. The big play is to relieve homesickness.

This made Kansu II even more angry, but Sun Ke replied that these two days were weekends, and he was going to rest, and Daming must be resting, and no one was working.

"It's the weekend again!"

Kansu II was completely speechless. A matter that Kansu II thought could be done quickly, the people of Ming Dynasty insisted on giving it for more than a week. What will happen again.

But the bad news came one after another.

The army of the Ottoman Empire recaptured Baghdad and drove the army of the Persian Empire back to the Persian plateau. The Mesopotamia returned to the hands of the Ottoman Empire again.

At the same time, the Ottoman Empire mobilized more than [-] elite troops to attack the Jordan River area. Once these areas are cleared, the soldiers can directly point to Egypt's Sinai Peninsula.

And the Sinai Peninsula is almost defenseless. Facing the powerful Ottoman army, what can be used to resist it?

At that time, as soon as the Sinai Peninsula passes, you can directly kill the Nile River area at the core of Egypt.
